MR PORTER
"There is an eclectic mix of prints across summer collections this season, but I must admit that the bandana style which reoccurs across various contemporary brands are my favorite. This pair of shorts from Loewe is made from panels of bandana-print cotton pieced together to create a striking patchwork effect. I would make these the focus of an outfit and wear with a plain tee and slides."
George Archer, buyer at MR PORTER
END.
"Cargo pants are having a revival at the moment and these utilitarian strides courtesy of Virgil Abloh hit the mark. They do a good job of showing off the fire on your feet, too!"

Thibaud Guyonnet, buyer at Voo Store
Farfetch
“They're black, they're Prada, they're nylon. You won't find a better pair of sweatpants this season.'"
Robert Nowill, global content and style editor at Farfetch
MACHINE-A
"ALYX is a brand that we are so proud to feature. Designed by Matt Williams, these trousers are a key piece displaying his inspirations from subculture styling. The hoodie attached to the waist is a playful take on layering and can be worn tied or loose."

TRÈS BIEN
"We've just restocked the classic Pleated Narrow Pants from Issey Miyaki Homme's Plisse. These are a great staple item, especially when you're traveling, because they're meant to be stored bunched up and always come out of the suitcase looking fresh and pressed."
Jesse Hudnutt, buyer at TRÈS BIEN
Browns Fashion
"The iconic Gucci GG print is crafted beautifully into this wide-leg single pleat trousers. Dressed up or down, these are some seriously bangin’ trousers."
Lee Goldup, menswear buyer at Browns Fashion
MATCHESFASHION
“Boramy Viguier is a new addition to our menswear offering this season and these press stud faille trousers are the perfect example of the modern sportswear functionality and classic silhouettes that he specializes in.”
Damien Paul, head of menswear at MATCHESFASHION
